Lilac-Breasted Roller in flight

For anyone who has ever been on safari in Africa, the flight of a Lilac-Breasted Roller will cause anyone to raise their camera and try to get a shot of these colorful birds in flight. While rarely successful as they move so fast, this shot came together. Shot in the Selinda Spillway in Botswana's Okavango Delta with a Canon 1D Mark III and a 300mm f/2.8L IS lens and a 1.4x teleconverter.
